Since the opening of our doors in 2000, Amphibian Stage has sought to open minds. We turn a simple stage into provocative stories, reimagine the world, and breathe life into the national arts scene. Our non-profit theatre company, founded by three alumni of TCU’s Department of Theatre, produces the nation’s most ground-breaking and challenging plays. After 20 seasons, we continue to surprise audiences with stylistically and thematically varied productions.
We are deeply committed to the arts at large, providing diverse programs for youth and veterans; we constantly strive to drive conversations and change perceptions.
Picture this: You are an architecture professor specializing in modes of egress. You try to teach your students to care about safe passage through spaces and they write about doors and windows. They write about transparent open spaces versus closed systems with no entrances or exits. You don’t sleep soundly at night because you startle awake wondering what had just been in the room with you. You know it was something big and cold and damp and it just walked in like it owned the place. What do you expect to come find you? How do you get away?
